A Christmas story for Cora

Here is how a story called "Cora and the Lighthouse Crack" might begin:

The lighthouse lamp spun its comforting circle of light across the tumultuous, frozen sea on Christmas Eve. Cora, nestled in her grandfather's old armchair, listened to the wild wind howl around the ancient stone tower. A sudden, sharp crack, like ice splitting under pressure, made her jump. It came from directly below, at the base of the lighthouse where the waves usually crashed. She hurried to the observation deck and gasped. The usually solid, iron landing platform, where boats would dock, now had a jagged, glowing fissure running straight through it, shimmering with an unnatural, icy blue light.

What happens next? Cora discovers a mysterious, glowing crack in the lighthouse's foundation, realizing it signals a larger problem threatening the coastal beacon.
